RPI wise we may be ahead of them, but the WAC will be a multi-bid conference in the tournament this year w/ at least UTEP and Nevada making it. While the Belt will only send the conference champ.

I was just reading on their board that they are pretty sure they will be a one bid conference this year if Nevada wins. Everyone seems to think UTEP's lose to Pacific doomed them unless they win the conference.

The WAC should only have 1 bid this year, unless their championship game comes down to UTEP and Nevada, and UTEP wins; then there might be 2 bids for the WAC. The Sun Belt should get 2 bids this year.

Here are the top 3 teams going by RPI in each conference.

WAC (RPI)

Nevada 33

UTEP 78

Hawaii 104

Sun Belt

LA Lafayette 50

AR Little Rock 51

West. Kentucky 61

Really need to be at that 45 range to think at-large. I'm not sure UALR or ULL can cut below that level unless they get some help.
